<p>Handling 18 machines across six states came with challenges, particularly in communicating and managing 18 administrative

<p>Furthermore, the team has ensured the sustainability of this operation. “Most of the institutions we’re working with don’t
have the expertise or the full-time employees to spare,” Andresen explained. Central administration by OSG has been instrumental

reflected. “It’s allowed us to reach out to different types of people, creating new opportunities that build on each other.”</p>

<p>Echoing this sentiment, Hudson highlighted the project’s impact in involving previously less-engaged institutions within GPN with the network’s recent expansion from 18 to 19 campuses. “Cameron University heard about some of the things we’re doing
through their state network, had a spare box, and asked if they could get involved!” Hudson explained.</p>

<p>Building these regional connections was one of the most important steps in creating this network. The Midwest doesn’t
have any major supercomputing centers or institutions with enough people to drive a network of this magnitude forward.
